Volunteering at Mottisfont

Join our ever-growing group of volunteers and help make a difference at Mottisfont.

A dedicated team

Mottisfont has more than 400 volunteers. This band of people have one thing in common: they want to be part of our work in looking after this unique house, garden and estate.

Volunteer teams are at the heart of every aspect of our work. From managing the bookshop to driving buggies, from sharing the history of the house to working out in the countryside, volunteer contribution is vital.

Whether you're looking to make new friends, develop skills or simply want to be part of something you're passionate about, we'd love to have you on board. Enthusiasm and interest are the main requirements of the role.

Discover stories of creativity, conflict, love and loss in a house full of surprises. Originally founded as an Augustinian priory in 1201, the house has seen a number of transformations over the last 800 years, shaped by its many and varied owners. Now it reflects the designs of Mottisfont’s fascinating last owner, society hostess and arts patron Maud Russell. This year, we're telling the story of her youngest son, Raymond.

Our friendly team of outdoor guides offer free walks and talks around the gardens, village and wider estate, giving you the opportunity to learn more about our history and grounds. If you’d like to know what walks are available on your visit, please ask at visitor reception as you arrive, or take a look at the daily walks noticeboard at the end of the Welcome Centre walkway.
